"I think so; yes. Trevisa has been obliged to tell me."
"Has he told you why he wished the maid brought to Treviscoe?"
"No—that is, beyond what he told you."
"You mean that young Peter had fallen in love with her?"
"That is it."
"But that cannot be all; he would never wish her brought to Treviscoe unless he had some powerful reason to urge to the maid for the course he had taken."
"I think you are right."
"Have you any idea what the reason is?"
"No."
